#rockbox log for 2006-07-25

00:00:14k8toit runs faster than O2 almost all the time
00:00:25amiconnI only see two more options now. (1) Thumb code might be faster than plain arm. (2) Writing some (more) critical parts in assembler
00:00:41k8toi suspect rockbox platforms have slightly lower cost for memory access
00:01:04amiconnk8to: Depends. On coldfire, memory access is really costly
00:01:11k8tothumb faster than plain arm?
00:01:23k8tothat certainly wasn't the case when I worked with arm, but that was arm7tdmi etc
00:01:33linuxstbThe ipods are arm7tdmi
00:01:40k8tooh
00:01:58amiconnI said 'might be', of course I'm not sure
00:02:04k8tostill the thumb decoder could have had a few tweaks since 1998
00:02:08k8tobut it was a significant cost then
00:02:25linuxstbHow wide was your memory bus?
00:02:30k8tolike 20% speedloss for the test battery i had to deal with
00:02:40k8toit was a 32bit bus
00:02:44Bagderhah
00:02:47Bagderthere you go
00:02:56Bagderthumb is for 16bit
00:03:07amiconnBut the reasoning is that thumb instructions are 16bit, while plain arm is 32bit. And when memory bandwidth is a bottleneck...
00:03:10k8toit packs the instructions much mor etightly
00:03:23 Nick jborn_ is now known as JoeBorn (n=jborn@dsl017-022-247.chi1.dsl.speakeasy.net)
00:03:33k8towhich should be a win for load in all situations
00:03:34k8tobut
00:03:44 Quit klrspz ()
00:03:45amiconnI didn't deal at all with arm until the rockbox ipod port
00:03:47k8tothe decode costs more
00:04:35k8tohow painful is mixed execution these days?
00:04:37Bagderperhaps that's why they say its for 16bit memory cases? ;-)
00:04:45 Part darth_mall ("Ex-Chat")
00:05:12linuxstbAlthough if thumb proves faster, it's odd that (at least according to the IPL people), the Apple/PortalPlayer firmware doesn't contain any thumb code.
00:05:16k8toBagder: that seems plausible sure, but of course some people care more about code size
00:05:23Bagderindeed
00:05:27dan_aDoes anyone have any comments on the second patch on http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5686 ?
00:05:47k8tohah i used to work on vxworks
00:05:54dan_aWould it be better if I folded the PP5002 code in with the PP5020?
00:05:56Bagderlinuxstb: that's interesting, yes
00:06:02k8toand sometimes we'd get irate partners who were angry that our OS was so big on PPC
00:06:08amiconnlinuxstb: I wouldn't think to much about this fact. There is more than one oddity on every rockbox platform...
00:06:16k8tosince 68k code size is a lot smaller
00:06:56*freqmod likes the timer, the ipod feels much snappier when clicking now :)
00:06:57*man_in_shack had to do 68K asm last semester ...
00:07:49linuxstbdan_a: Yes, I think it's always better to combine code where possible. Also, I think it's up to you to decide the maximum speed for the 3g - but it would seem to make sense to me to use the higher frequency if it's needed and if it (at least appears to be) safe.
00:10:58amiconnlinuxstb: Did you check whether libmad -O is also faster on coldfire?
00:11:12dan_aMy thinking on the maximum speed was that it would be better to leave it lower to encourage work on optimising the codecs
00:11:21linuxstbNo, I was just thinking about that now - but does libmad even boost any more?
00:11:40*linuxstb goes to find his h140
00:11:45amiconnYou can make it boost. Just lower the unboosted frequency
00:12:08bluebrotherI haven't seen my h120 boost for mp3 for quite some time.
00:12:36amiconnIt's true, libmad is quite efficient now on coldfire. Now think back to how it started...
00:13:01*dan_a dreams of the day when the 3g drops under 100% boost

00:19:33barrywardelllinuxstb: how should i go about creating a fiile
00:20:25barrywardelli tried using fd=open("/test.txt",O_WRONLY), then close(fd)
00:21:03linuxstbI think you need something like fd=open("/test.txt",O_CREAT);
00:21:12amiconnYou also need O_CREAT
00:21:20amiconnor use creat() in the first place
00:21:27barrywardellah, ok
00:22:50linuxstbbarrywardell: So you've tried running it?
00:23:56barrywardellyeah, it looks like it may be running
00:24:06barrywardellbut the test file isn't appearing
00:24:21amiconnWho broke the default contrast???
00:24:31linuxstbSo it's easy to try a new .mi4 when the one you're trying crashes?
00:24:54Bagderamiconn: I believe Raenye's work might've done it
00:25:00amiconngah
00:25:03barrywardellyeah, there is a reset button on the H10
00:25:23barrywardelland then i can just start it up as a usb storage device

00:27:25 Quit lightyear (Remote closed the connection)
00:28:13amiconnThe function in fact can't be replaced by a simple #define
00:28:34*amiconn recommends checking code and its meaning, or asking, before changing things
00:28:34linuxstbIsn't it determined at run-time on some Archoses?
00:28:38amiconnyes
00:28:51amiconnOn recorder, the default contrast depends on the hardware mask

00:31:04linuxstbThat's a big step.
00:31:22linuxstbAll you need is an LCD and button driver, and Rockbox will boot...
00:31:26dan_aWell done!
00:31:34Bagdernice nice nice nice
00:31:57barrywardelli have no idea where to start with a LCD and button driver though

00:39:04linuxstbSeems the link to the LCD info from the IriverH10Info page is broken...
00:39:35linuxstbbarrywardell: Yes, and change Rockbox to automatically play your music when it starts. But you would also have to strip out a lot of ipod-specific stuff.
00:39:46barrywardelli think it's also the wrong model number
00:40:47***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:40:59barrywardellis it easy to find all the ipod-specific stuff? what files do i have to look in?
00:41:02linuxstbYou could also attempt to make your new bootloader load the original firmware.
00:41:48barrywardellhere's the LCD page: http://www.varitronix.com/TFTsearch.php I think it's the 1.8"
00:41:55linuxstbAs the H10 seems to be closest to a 1st gen mini, I would start by looking in firmware/export/config-ipodmini.h - those #defines control what code is included in the build.

00:45:58amiconnSlasheri: Another tagcache bug: If auto-update is enabled, and you shut down the unit while the auto-update scan is in progress, shutdown is delayed until the hard shutdown after 8 seconds kicks in.
00:46:16barrywardellyeah, think that's a "himax hx8310a"
00:46:20amiconnTagcache should stop doing its scans when a shutdown is requested
00:46:54linuxstbbarrywardell: You should try and track down a datasheet for it.
00:47:57barrywardelllinuxstb: i tried already, but haven't had any success yet
00:48:22amiconnlinuxstb: A tiny but important detail would be the hookup of the lcd controller...

00:53:14*linuxstb hated the piezo in the apple firmware, but is curious about it in Rockbox...
00:54:02barrywardelllinuxstb: would i do that by modifying one of the existing loaders in ipod.h? which one?
00:54:08amiconnPerhaps it makes the wheel a bit more bearable
00:54:22*amiconn still dislikes the wheel
00:54:34linuxstbbarrywardell: I would probably use the Rockbox one.
00:54:54freqmodlinuxstb: remember to turn it on (i have hidden the settings the in LCD settings menu, in need for a better place), and when the duration is 0 (default) it does not make a sound.

00:58:30freqmodthe first was my original patch (now fixed for a little typo)
00:58:44freqmodthe secound changes from udelay to timer
00:59:01linuxstbSo I should apply them both?

01:30:00freqmodi did hook the beep function in the button driver where the keypresses are queued
01:30:36linuxstbI know - I think my suggestion would be harder to implement. It would have to be in everywhere in apps/ that reacted to a keypress...

02:54:37Drkepilogueheres the descritption
02:54:38DrkepilogueCompiling libmad with -O instead of -O2 gives a small speedup (60% boost instead of 66% boost on my test tracks) on ipods. Based on patch #5707 for the ipod 3g by Daniel Ankers, extended to all ipods by me.

02:57:44Paul_The_NerdIt can get the same job done in less time, using the same amount of power per millisecond. So, total, less power is used.

03:17:47Paul_The_NerdThen it didn't succeed
03:17:51Paul_The_NerdYou probably just have bad tags
03:18:03Drkepiloguei got japanese tags.
03:18:16Drkepiloguedoes that affect!?
03:18:24Paul_The_NerdDo you have any embedded album art, MP4, M4P, or M4A files?
03:18:43Paul_The_NerdTags in Japanese *should* be okay, I think
03:19:02DrkepilogueAAC, yes
03:19:12Drkepilogueembedded album art.. iono how to check
03:19:38Paul_The_NerdIs "iono" supposed to mean "I don't know" or something similar?
03:19:46Drkepilogueyeah
03:19:51Drkepiloguei dont know
03:19:53kubanerUp and running, thanks for clearing my doubt Drkepilogue hehe.
03:20:03Drkepiloguehav fun using RB
03:20:05Paul_The_NerdPlease, try to use real phrases instead of made up words. It makes it difficult for non-English speakers.
03:20:24Drkepilogueoh
03:20:25Drkepiloguesorry
03:20:32Drkepilogueyour english seems good in the forum
03:20:38Paul_The_NerdThe AAC files could be the problem, as our metadata reader isn't alway consistent with them. As well, if you have embedded album art, that's caused issues in the past as well.
03:20:49Paul_The_NerdOh, I'm a native English speaker, but just because I am doesn't mean everyone is.
03:21:18Paul_The_NerdIt's just a standard we like to try to keep for better understanding in general.
03:21:22Drkepilogueok
03:21:36Drkepiloguewell, how do i check if embedded arts are in my songs?
03:23:18jsMikeSThe latest build is crashing on my X5 because of the contrast/brightness patch that was committed. Just hangs with messed-up colors, says "No Files" and is unresponsive. I've tracked the problem to settings.c.
03:23:35Drkepiloguenice
03:23:39Drkepiloguethink you can fix it?

03:25:57jsMikeSIf I change that it doesn't crash but can't save/restore the setting.
03:26:12jsMikeSIt's a clean CVS build

03:30:57Paul_The_NerdjsMikeS: Out of curiosity, have you tried clearing your settings while booting with a CVS build? I find it hard to believe that a patch was committed that consistently causes a freeze.
03:32:33jsMikeSyes, clear everything. Deleted rockbox entirely from my player, compiled clean...all that.
03:33:04jsMikeSEven tried downloading a build off the site
03:33:24Paul_The_NerdYou're gonna have to catch Raenye or maybe Bagder for this one, I imagine.
03:33:43Paul_The_NerdDid you actually clear your settings, or just delete rockbox?
03:34:16jsMikeSPaul_The_Nerd: I haven't seen RaeNye around here much lately. Badger is on right now but is he watching?

03:35:06Paul_The_NerdI think it's a bit late for him to be around.
03:35:12jsMikeSPaul_The_Nerd: Deleted all rockbox related files. Setting would have been cleared. :)
03:35:22Paul_The_NerdNo, they wouldn't have
03:35:26Paul_The_NerdThe settings aren't stored in any file.
03:35:33sharpejsMikeS: not the one stored off the main partition.
03:35:36Paul_The_NerdThey're written to a config sector on the disk.
03:35:42jsMikeSI did try a clear, yees
03:35:55jsMikeSHow do you wipe that out?
03:36:00 Part kubaner ("Leaving")
03:36:05Paul_The_NerdUsually, hold something while booting
03:36:32jsMikeSThat just wipes it and doesn't have to know what settings are defines?
03:37:10jsMikeSBTW: I'd find it odd if they'd committed that too. That's why it's probably me.
03:37:38Paul_The_NerdThat just resets the settings. You should do that with a clean, bleeding edge CVS build downloaded from the site, and see if it works. It'll say "Settings Cleared" when you boot it the right way, probably holding Record.
03:38:10jsMikeSI did the clean bleeding edge thing. I'll try that.
03:39:44Paul_The_NerdWell, I'm suggesting you do that *with* a clean bleeding edge, to make sure.
03:41:03jsMikeSGot the "cleared"
03:41:41jsMikeSPaul_The_Nerd: Sweet. It worked! :D Thank you.
03:41:57 Quit TeaSeaLancs ("Leaving")
03:42:43jsMikeSPaul_The_Nerd: RB gets messed up a lot when new settings a introduced.
03:43:00Paul_The_NerdWell, when introduced properly, they should automatically be cleared.
03:43:28jsMikeSThere's the qualifier. I've never seen the "Cleared".
03:43:31Paul_The_NerdBut you'll notice there were a few commits revolving around that patch, as things didn't quite happen right, which could've been what caused a bad setting to get in after the clear.
03:43:43Paul_The_NerdIt won't say cleared on one of those. You'll just boot up and suddenly have no theme.
03:44:26jsMikeSWhen the recording was put it, it just started going right to the recording screen.
03:45:26Paul_The_NerdWell, I think you can increase the settings version without increasing the minimum settings version. If my memory is right, then this may be what's being done. I think it was found out to be a bad idea though.
03:46:08jsMikeSIncreasing the settings version changes what where?
03:46:16jsMikeSIn the sector?
03:46:56 Quit Pyromancer (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
03:47:57jsMikeSI take it it's supposed to an read old settings version in, and output the the new version tagged with a new version number?
03:48:06Paul_The_NerdIf I remember right, increasing it just means "We have a new settings version" while increasing the minimum means "The middle of the settings has changed, so you'll have to reset to defaults."
03:48:35Paul_The_NerdNo, it never bothers to read the old version in. But if the old version is higher than the minimum, it should still be usable data.
03:48:47jsMikeSHmmm...know what file handles that part?

04:28:38midkayLOL
04:29:44Paul_The_Nerddongs: So, question one: How do you explain the fact that Rockbox beats the commercial firmware's battery life on the Archoses and irivers?
04:30:03dongsobviously, they compiled with even older gnu compiler
04:30:43midkayso you're saying open source software is making progress?
04:31:12Paul_The_Nerddongs: So, what will your response be when/if we ever do beat the iPod's firmware battery life?
04:31:26midkayPaul_The_Nerd: by-product of "newer gnu compiler".
04:31:31dongsi will be impressed
04:31:35dongsbut i doubt it'll happen
04:32:12Paul_The_NerdIt won't be the compiler that prevents it from happening though

07:28:34dongsHulex: apple firmware has the usb driver built in so it doesnt reset when you unplug it.
07:28:41desrt6MB/s over usb1.1? i doubt it.
07:29:01Hulexuh
07:29:07HulexNot quite sure what you mean
07:29:11HulexI'm stoppid sry :(
07:29:15kazukisanbut now with another folder its going around 1 mb or less
07:29:17kazukisanits weird
07:29:34scorchelack of usb support means that rockbox cannot transfer over usb...in other words, we just simply use apple's disk mode to transfer
07:29:44kazukisanoh well later
07:29:52dongshuhu
07:30:43Hulex..ohhh
07:31:07Hulexyeah kinda noticed that. Except the "Ipod is connected" graphic is different
07:31:15dongsyea
07:31:21scorchenot a big deal atm...it just would be nice if we used our own implementation of it....i am sure that it will happen eventually
07:31:28dongsthe disk mode firmware has a really ugly grayscale version of it
07:31:44dongsi mean you drop $200 on a ipod and then load it wiht rockbox and al lyou see is gray
07:31:49Hulexyeah
07:32:04scorchedongs: can you please go back to idling?
07:32:14Hulexhaha
07:32:20Hulexaw c'mon he's not hurting anyone
07:32:21midkayhonestly... Bagder, wake up please. :)
07:32:39Paul_The_Nerddongs: A) Why does it matter if the USB screen is bloody grayscale. B) Actually, the default theme for Rockbox doesn't include _any_ gray
07:32:59dongsPaul_The_Nerd: catcher isnt gray? geez dude do you need new eyes?
07:33:11scorcheHulex: actually, he does...when new people come in here for the first time, and see him spouting off...well...you can get the picture =)
07:33:14midkaythe *DEFAULT* theme.
07:33:20midkaynot "catcher" (iCatcher?).
07:33:22dongsoh the b&w one?
07:33:28Paul_The_Nerddongs: Do I need to point you to a definition for the word "default" somewhere?
07:33:29midkayyes, that's what Paul_The_Nerd indicated.
07:33:35dongsi see
07:33:40dongswell, that looks pretty gray to me.
07:33:41Paul_The_Nerddongs: And maybe some new eyes, if you can't tell the difference between light blue and white.
07:33:42dongswhite + black.
07:33:48dongslight blue??
07:33:48midkayit's light blue + black.
07:33:50midkaynot gray in any way..
07:33:51Paul_The_NerdIt's light blue

07:34:42elljayis there a howto on how to remove rockbox entirely from an ipod?
07:34:49midkayHulex: i dunno about sensitive, but dongs is just bothersome.. he's been here for probably a month, always starts moaning about something...
07:34:51HulexThere should be
07:35:01dongselljay: run apple firmware, and hten use apple ipod updater to reflash it
07:35:06Hulexmidkay I wouldn't know
07:35:12dongs(or write back the bootloader you made when you installed rockbox first)
07:35:14midkayHulex: no, i guess you wouldn't.
07:35:26scorchemidkay: dont forget all of his misinformation =)
07:35:29midkayas someone who idles here all the time, i do.. and it's really getting *annoying*.
07:35:41midkayhaha.
07:35:48Paul_The_Nerdelljay: The simplest method is just to restore it with the apple tool. If you kept your bootpartition.bin file you can write it back (as you wrote rockboot.bin originally) instead, as that won't wipe the files.
07:35:49elljaynm, i just figured it out
07:36:02dongswhat 'misinformation
07:36:11scorcheand ranting on linux...and how open-source automatically makes things bad
07:36:35elljaypaul; strange thing.. i put on the apple os and firmware.. i cannot hold pause to shut it off.. and it shuts down while i'm updating it via itunes
07:37:21elljaypaul; is that because i didnt go to disk mode before i ran the apple restore utility
07:37:22midkaydongs: how about calling iCatcher the "default" theme, or then thinking the default theme was black and white?..
07:37:27midkayto name two in the past minute or so..
07:37:28 Join Mordov|hardlywo [0] (n=mordov@mail.furuno.no)
07:37:34midkayscale that up to hours of moaning and you've got a hell of a lost.
07:37:38midkaylist*
07:37:48dongsmidkay: icatcher isnt blue, and neither is the 'default theme';
07:38:02Paul_The_Nerdelljay: Any problems with JUST the apple firmware installed are none of our business. Their firmware updater completely destroys and rebuilds the data on the drive, so having had Rockbox on it before can't affect it after you run the restore process.
07:38:02midkaythe "default theme" is *light blue* and *black*.
07:38:07midkayicatcher isn't default in any way.
07:38:09midkaywrong on both counts.

07:39:10elljayhmm.. wonder why itunes disconnects it in the middle of an upload of songs
07:39:14elljayeffing itunes
07:39:20elljayperhaps i should put rockbox back on ;)
07:39:26Hulexheh

07:39:34HulexI've had that problem a few times elljay
07:39:45HulexI think it might be a weird faulty connection or something
07:39:47elljayhulex; it happens over and over for me
07:40:02elljayhulex; same cable,ipod, etc never did that when i was uploading to rockbox
07:40:05rizzoI know you guys are busy, but anyone else that I have talked to have not had much knowledge about the ipod...even in #ipod
07:40:08HulexI have to keep things VERY STILL so it doesn't disconnect while transferring data
07:40:08midkaydongs: so you don't have a reply to that, apparently.. have you realized how wrong you are in general? willing to leave yet?
07:40:13Hulexhm
07:40:19elljayhulex; i sat it on the table ;)

07:40:36Hulexalmost white
07:40:36midkaytry it. load rockbox_default from the menu.

07:45:28midkaywhere do you think it would be anyways? clearly it's not a playback setting, nor a file view setting.. ah, maybe it's a.. hm.. *display* setting?
07:45:37midkayum, that's what the setting's for. congratulations.
07:45:46rizzoI seem to have come in for an argument; especially since i came in here for a non-rockbox question, I can wait for a spare moment :)
07:45:50midkaydisable scrollbar *disables the scroll bar in file view*. a setting that does what it should. insane.
07:45:54dongsmidkay: um, i wanted to have it on the RIGHT side of the screen
07:45:57dongswhere scrollbars usually are
07:45:59dongsnot on the LEFT.
07:46:04dongsclearly theresnt a setting for that
07:46:06dongsunless im blind.
07:46:27midkayyou said you wanted to turn it off "or at least move it to the right", implying you'd prefer it off but you'd settle for moving it to the right.
07:46:34scorche<dongs> how do I turn off scrollbar in fileview?
07:46:41midkayyou are blind considering blue == white, but there is no setting for it, anyways.
07:46:53dongsso youre saying the scrollbar is always on the left?
07:46:58Paul_The_NerdI believe so.
07:47:08dongsam I the only one who thinks thats insane?
07:47:11scorcheon most DAPs as well

07:51:28JdGordonye
07:51:49JdGordondongs: accept is ON/PLAY on iriver and select is NAVI, im not sure how to translate them to ipod
07:51:50Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: Because stopping playback is handled with holding Play in WPS.
07:52:13Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: The Select button on the iPod functions *exactly* as NAVI on iRiver, everywhere I believe.
07:52:52JdGordonok

07:56:15Doomed_dongs u here?
07:56:17JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: ye, the colour slider is gonna need some fancy work, but i still think replaceing all the code and having minor adjustments in a few places is better than what we have now

07:56:43dongsmft
07:56:45dongsyea
07:56:47JdGordonis play (ipod) roughly equiv to play on iriver?
07:56:58Doomed_if the drive is fat32, would this still apply
07:57:14JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: well, the back is really the same as left in 99% of the cases, isnt it?
07:57:15dongsit *should* install on fat32 generally. at least thats been my experience.
07:57:25dongsDoomed_: have you downloaded + ran manufacturer boot floppy to diagnose the drive yet?
07:57:25JdGordonback as in up one level, not back as in quit
07:57:34Doomed_yeah i think im calling this drive stupid
07:57:38Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: It's identical except that a very long press powers down, and a long press in-WPS stops playback.
07:57:42Doomed_i dont have the floppy drive on me

08:01:35Doomed_wow its clicking
08:02:26JdGordonPaul_The_Nerd: last one.. short play is the same as iriver play, long play is the same as iriver stop ? that good?
08:03:13Paul_The_NerdJdGordon: Actually, in filetree long-play does nothing (on iRiver you can use stop to halt playback), and very-long play shuts down.
08:03:39Paul_The_NerdSo, gotta be careful about hold-times I guess.

08:28:55dongsKrono6: just ask. do not ask to ask. but, chances are, you fucked up and cant be helped.
08:29:16Krono6I spent since 8PM yesterday (almost 7:30AM now) getting Linux installed, got Rockbox too, though I wanted to uninstall it, get my iPod just like it was, but there's a problem. Everytime I do anything, put any songs, I go into Disk Mode, go back to normal mode and everything's gone, like it didn't save a thing
08:29:21Krono6all the settings, never save

08:30:30Paul_The_NerdDo you currently have Rockbox installed?

08:31:32Krono6will they ask questions because, well, I'm in the UK and my mum bought me the iPod from the US

08:31:51Krono6oh, right
08:32:13Krono6thanks for your help guys.. Though one more question before I call Apple, do you think it could be the Linux Partition?
08:32:25Krono6I followed some step to boot into Slax from the iPod Linux forums, all that
08:32:37Paul_The_NerdIf you ran the restore, and haven't done anything since, there shouldn't be a linux partition,.
08:32:37dongslunix partition on ipod?

08:34:17Krono6thanks everyone, I'll let you guys know if I found a solution, I'm sure I'm not the only person who's had this problem XD

08:38:43RancidLMi made a backup of it orginally using cat dev/sdb > ipod_orig.img
08:39:01RancidLMcan i re-cat it back from the image or will the boot loader be messed?
08:39:03Paul_The_NerdRancidLM: The easiest way to remove rockbox is to just DD the bootpartition.bin back on.
08:39:04scorcheipl and rockbox can coexist
08:39:26scorchebut, you would have to re-format anyway...

08:41:45RancidLMwhat method would that b e?
08:41:59RancidLMdd the boot partition eh

09:42:38LinusNkurzhaarrocker: still sounds fine here, with 15000/1.0
09:42:51kurzhaarrockerI correct myself: with higher Q settings the problem becomes worse.
09:43:22Paul_The_NerdWell, higher Q means a narrower band is affected...

09:43:41dan_a_awayanyway, time for work.
09:43:45 Quit dan_a_away ()
09:43:51kurzhaarrockerPaul_The_Nerd: But the high band is supposed to be a shelf filter
09:43:55LinusNkurzhaarrocker: at 15000 i think 0.5 is more sensible
09:44:12Paul_The_Nerdkurzhaarrocker: True, but you're not supposed to change the Q from the default on the shelves.
09:44:48amiconnIirc the high shelf and low shelf should always have Q=0.7 according to preglow
09:45:08Paul_The_NerdYup
09:45:09kurzhaarrockerYou're right, LinusN. But when I set extrem Q values like 5 the gain works nearly invers -> reducing the gain increases the high band.
09:45:37amiconnQ>0.7 makes the transfer function overshoot
09:45:43LinusNkurzhaarrocker: so you're saying "when i set ridiculous values, it sounds bad"
09:45:52LinusNhardly surprising :-)

09:47:06amiconnLinusN: Your fix did what I am testing mine for before commit: RED x5 sim...
09:47:08LinusNwell, if you aren't supposed to change it, why is it allowed in the gui?

09:47:42LinusNamiconn: should i fix it, or will you?
09:47:45amiconnWell, you can change Q if you know what you're doing...
09:48:13Paul_The_Nerdkurzhaarrocker: Out of curiosity, are you sure that isn't normal behaviour of similar filters at ridiculous values?

09:50:41Paul_The_NerdI'm just saying, it may be something wonky in the nature of the algorithm. But definitely something that should be looked at at least.
09:53:52kurzhaarrockerWith extreme Q settings shelf filters tend do generate slight boost peaks near the filter frequency. But still boosting the band really boosts it and reducing the gain does reduce that band.
09:55:05Paul_The_NerdIf there were a peak near the filter frequency, and it were rolling over, wouldn't that be somewhat similar to what you described hearing then?

10:00:14kurzhaarrockerPaul_The_Nerd: You might be right.
10:00:25amiconnWith target_tree, the target code isn't built for the sim afaiu
10:00:50amiconnSo the question is how precise we want the simulators to be
10:01:07LinusNyes it is, if you edit SOURCES
10:01:25amiconnThe simple solution would be to code a generic lcd_default_contrast() for all sims
10:01:28 Join safetydan [0] (n=dan@cor6-ppp650.for.dsl.connect.net.au)
10:02:10amiconnLinusN: Hmm, but do you think it's a good idea to build the whole lcd_x5.c for the sim just for lcd_default_contrast() ?
10:02:19LinusNmaybe not
10:03:00Paul_The_Nerdkurzhaarrocker: In which case, if you lowered the precut by the same amount you increased the band, you'd *probably* achieve the affect you wanted. Maybe.
10:03:11Paul_The_NerdOr maybe a little more than you raised it.
10:03:17amiconnThat would become even more ugly when some more targets are converted to use target_tree
10:03:23LinusNi just meant that the target tree code can be compiled in the sims
10:04:04amiconnIt reintroduces #ifdef to the driver code
10:04:18LinusNit does?
10:04:47amiconnAt least #ifndef SIMULATOR ... #endif
10:05:02LinusNthat's hard to avoid
10:05:39amiconnWell, it is avoidable, if code in firmware/target/ is _never_ compiled for the sims
10:05:54LinusNbut targets are different
10:06:00LinusNeven when simulated
10:06:21amiconnYes, but that's code outside firmware/target/
10:06:36amiconn(so far)
10:07:07LinusNpower-x5.c has simulator stubs in it
10:07:15amiconnhmm...
10:07:29linuxstbWould a uisimulator/target/ tree be any help?
10:07:59amiconnI thought the main idea behind target_tree was to cut down #ifdef hell
10:08:02 Quit theli_ua ("Покидаю")
10:08:07kurzhaarrockerPaul_The_Nerd: No, i believe that it's my deafness for high frequencies combined with the natural behaviour of shelf filters with high Q. I only noticed that a frequency band lower than the filter frequency was attentuated. I didn't hear the boost of the high frequency because I'm probably deaf for them. A rocker at an age of 35 can not hear that high frequency at all :(
10:08:28LinusNamiconn: yes, but only the #ifdef TARGET hell, not the #ifdef SIMULATOR hell
10:08:39amiconnBtw, I'm still not sure how to handle target code for more than one target, but not all targets of an architecture
10:09:11amiconn(example: lcd code for all bitmapped archoses)
10:09:25LinusNamiconn: that would probably require #ifdefs in SOURCES
10:09:36amiconnAH, hmm

12:11:20JdGordonget_action() replaces button_get() (and button_get_w_tmo() ), if you want to use the default handler you can in your switch

12:11:37JdGordonget_action() returns the SYS_* codes if it is one
12:12:09LinusNif i understand it correctly, you could have defined a local action list in menu.c instead of using case ACTION_RIGHT?

12:13:21JdGordonno, you would set your own return codes, because if your button combo isnt pressed it will return the code form the default combos
12:14:05JdGordonthere should be one more value in the enum DEFAULT_COMOBOS or something so you could do (DEFAULT_COMOBOS +1) in your loop with your own combox

12:30:43LinusNi think the archos player is a perfect target for you to verify that your concept holds water
12:30:52JdGordonwell.. not really, because the ACTION_ doesnt really need to corelate to keys, but to what its doing on the screen.
12:31:04JdGordonbut changing to NEXT and PREV can be done
12:31:19JdGordonwhat do up and down get changed to?
12:31:22linuxstbThere's also no up/down on ipods - just "scroll forward" and "scroll back"
12:31:25JdGordonsorry, left and right
12:31:45*linuxstb thinks the ipods will cause problems.
12:31:59JdGordonlinuxstb: nope, i tihnk ive got the ipod done fine
12:33:02LinusNJdGordon: as the archos player has no up/down buttons, we should probably not define ACTION_UP/DOWN at all on that target, or?
12:33:06JdGordonup = prev, down = next, left = cancel, right = ok ? something like that?
12:33:37JdGordonLinusN: no, the actions are always defined, even if they do nothing in that target, might waste a tiny bit of space, but no more #ifdef
12:35:40LinusNhmm, i'm still confused
12:35:52rasherHrm, let me just remove the html manuals from my site
12:36:08LinusNBUTTON_ON is defined twice
12:36:20LinusN{ BUTTON_ON, ACTION_UNUSED, 0 },
12:36:46JdGordonthe first column is the button combo, the 2nd is the action value, the third dw about
12:36:46LinusNthree times
12:38:09LinusNwhat was the third column again?
12:38:33JdGordona 1 means that the item above it must have been the last button pressed
12:38:50JdGordonthe 1 being the index above the current... 0 means no prereq
12:38:58LinusNaha
12:39:49LinusNthat's probably something that should be in a comment
12:39:56JdGordonwould ACTION_UP_PREV instead of just ACTION_UP?
12:40:04linuxstbJdGordon: What I mean about the ipods is that sometimes the wheel does the equivalent of up/down, and sometimes it does left/right, generally depending on which direction has the greater range. Also, sometimes the wheel isn't used at all but the four buttons on the clickwheel (MENU, NEXT, PLAY, PREV) are used for the four directions.
12:40:06JdGordonisnt it? ill comment it all soon
12:41:03***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
12:41:18JdGordonlinuxstb: ye, the colour chooser is one such places and i cant think of a nice way to fix that, i tinhk handling that special case with #ifdef CONFIG_IPOD is the easiest way? it isnt that often it happens
12:41:21LinusNJdGordon: any specific reason you used the pre_button_relative_index instead of defining the button code directly?
12:41:35JdGordonLinusN: faster
12:42:03LinusNhow so?
12:42:10JdGordonoh, hang on.. ye, im a dill
12:42:12*amiconn spots someone mentioning wasting space
12:42:35JdGordoni'm sure there was a reason i did it this way, but its gone, ill change that
12:42:51JdGordonamiconn: look over there... a squirell!
12:42:58LinusN:-)
12:44:23rasherSo.. is the WikiManual obsolete yet?
12:44:32LinusNpretty much, i guess
12:45:47rasherLarge sections of it at least
12:47:01rasherThe amount of FAQs is flabbergasting
12:48:23rasherArchosFAQ, BatteryFAQ, BlindFAQ, FaqBatteries, GeneralFAQ, GminiPortFAQ, IpodFAQ, IriverFAQ, LiIonBatteryFAQ, RockboxFAQ
12:48:55rasherAh, FaqBatteries is a french translation of BatteryFAQ it would seem

12:51:19rasherMan, I wish someone[tm] would create a host version of the tagcache builder
12:51:36 Nick ^Charly^ is now known as Charly|AFK|eat (n=not@83-65-154-210.afrikanergasse.xdsl-line.inode.at)
12:51:43rasherAlso, a word of advice: Do not enable dircache if you have the HVSC on your dap
12:51:57LinusNJdGordon: i think i do, but i'm slightly worried about the loops, and i'm not sure i understand all of it
12:52:02rasherAlmost melted my harddisk..
12:52:03linuxstbAnother word of advice - don't try and delete the HVSC using Rockbox's delete function...
12:52:31JdGordonLinusN: ok, if im not asleep when i get back ill fix it up and comment it all
12:52:36rasherGenerally, be careful with that amount of files!
12:52:37LinusNgreato
12:52:56Slasherirasher :D there already is a host version, hardeep made that (but currently it's little out of date with the newest tagcache db)
12:53:25rasherSlasheri: but that doesn't use the Rockbox code for getting metadata
12:53:32Slasheriyes, that's true
12:53:50rasherWhich means it's mp3 and ogg only (and with some quirks, iirc)
12:53:54Slasherihmm, shouldn't be hard to port the tagcache db builder to run on pc
12:54:01 Join tucoz [0] (n=50ca6307@labb.contactor.se)
12:54:19amiconnIirc there already is one...
12:54:43LinusNthe hard part would be to keep the binary compatibility for all targets, wouldn't it?
12:55:28rasherI guess you'd probably have to specify which device you were building for, and then add some magic to the db-builder
12:55:35LinusNyup
12:55:47amiconntools/songdb.pl
12:56:01amiconnhardeep adapted it to tagcache
12:56:03rasheramiconn: but that uses external libraries for metadata
12:56:20rasher(no musepack, wavpack, flac?, sid, etc)
12:56:27SlasheriLinusN: yes, endianess can be a problem
12:56:35linuxstbA C version using the existing Rockbox metadata and tagcache code would be preferable IMO
12:56:47rasher(plus it's perl, yuck)
12:56:55*rasher runs and hides
12:56:55linuxstb(and if done right, automatically updated with changes in Rockbox)
12:57:12rasherlinuxstb: that'd be the main selling point, I'd say
12:57:25tucozrasher: I have been thinking about the documentation licence issues. Especially regarding the wiki. What do you think we should about that?
12:57:55amiconnSlasheri: Did you see my tagcache bug report from last night?
12:58:37amiconnSlasheri: I also tested auto update on H140 and recorder. It takes a bit more than 1 minute on H140, and more than 8 minutes on recorder...
12:58:41rashertucoz: as far as I can see, not much can be done except mail all contributors, asking them to license their contributions under a specific license (cc-by-sa if you ask me)
12:58:51linuxstbI'm in favour of choosing a license, and then asking all contributors to confirm that they agree to it. But someone would need to volunteer to handle the logistics...
12:58:51tucozWhich is impossible
12:59:00rasherNot at all
12:59:03linuxstbWhy impossible?
12:59:17rasherOf course, we'd probably end up having to throw out a bunch of contributions
12:59:25rasherbut I'd say that'd be worth it
12:59:28tucozwell, the wiki has been around some time, and is edited by a lot of people
12:59:37safetydanWoo! libm sin and cos in plugins on target.
12:59:39tucozsome will have to be inactive, not reachable
12:59:44rasherBut how many, really?
12:59:56rasherAren't the most important contributors active people
13:00
13:00:05rasherwho left working contact details
13:00:10rasherI'd almost be willing to put money on that
13:00:50tucozhmm, you are probably right
13:01:02linuxstbWe could also archive the "unlicensed" info somewhere separately, if we wanted to keep the main wiki clean.
13:01:06Slasheriamiconn: hmm, interesting.. i will check logs again, probably i missed that
13:01:33rasherlinuxstb: yeah, no (additional) harm in doing that
13:01:45tucozAnd start to ask people to agree to a licence when signing up to the wiki
13:01:55rasherAbsolutely
13:02:10rasherand put a note at the bottom of each page, and the edit-page as well
13:02:11Slasheriamiconn: ah, yes. that needs to be fixed
13:02:23rasherJust for making sure
13:02:23tucozso, the common creatives licence is better than the gfdl?
13:02:30rasherI believe so
13:02:36tucozthat is like the gpl?
13:02:44rasherPretty much, as far as I can see
13:02:49Slasheriamiconn: and also tagcache isn't thread safe yet so i will need to add some protection to the routines also
13:03:09tucozok. I must say I thought the gfdl was pretty much gpl (but for docs).
13:03:21rasherBut then, I haven't looked very closely yet, and I'm mostly going by what I read other people say about it
13:03:26tucozok
13:03:42tucozWell, we would benefit to get this done asap in any case
13:03:54Slasheriamiconn: hmm, you had dircache disabling from both players?
13:03:57Slasheri*ed
13:04:15amiconnOf course
13:04:22amiconnOn archos I have no choice anyway
13:04:27tucozAgree on these issues, and get started with the tedious task of asking people to agree to a specific licence then...
13:04:51rashertucoz: it is.. almost, but there are a number of problems (granted, not many of those are likely to be relevant for Rockbox)
13:04:56Slasheriamiconn: then it's really weird why archos is so much slower..
13:05:19Slasheribecause disk should be the slowest part when autoupdating without dircache
13:05:37Slasheriunless you did the manual update
13:05:38rasherhttp://people.debian.org/~srivasta/Position_Statement.xhtml#problems has a list of problems with the gfdl in the eyes of Debian, some practical, some philosophical
13:05:46tucozhanks
13:05:49tucozthanks
13:05:54Slasherithat is really slow without dircache because it checks for deleted files also
13:06:04amiconnSlasheri: No, that was auto-update
13:06:23Slasheriamiconn: hmm, did you check if the drive was fragmented?
13:06:36rasherOf course, by using the GFDL we get the bonus that we won't have to do anything about the manual
13:06:47rasherEither way, the manual and wiki really should use the same license
13:07:01tucozagreed
13:07:20Slasheriamiconn: btw, how long did it take to initialize tagcache (without commit step)?
13:07:40amiconnHmm, don't remember. Need to test again :/
13:07:50tucozI have hesitated to using the information from the wiki sometimes, as it felt somewhat wrong as I didn't know the licence of the wiki
13:08:23rasherIt'd be nice if someone with wiki access could present some stats about wiki members (how many, and if possible, how much people have contributed)
13:09:04tucozHmm, I wonder if we will be able to reach the original manual writers (except Cassandra, as she is here once in a while)
13:09:19amiconnGah, cvs conflicts (expetced them though)
13:09:28rasherI think people who have been that involved are likely to be reachable, in general
13:09:43tucozI am pretty sure we will get a number of bounced mails
13:10:03rasherThat's inevitable
13:10:11rasherNotices on the website might help also
13:10:21linuxstbYep, and the mailing lists etc
13:10:29tucozah, of course :)
13:10:45rasherAnd a splash in the daily rockbox builds (kidding)
13:10:54tucozthe last point on that list of problems is definitely a problem
13:11:14tucoznot atm though
13:11:50rasherYeah, there's been a lot of "bad press" about the gfdl, at least within Debian
13:13:19tucozWell, debian is pretty anal with licences and so is rockbox so I think their examples are valid enough
13:13:40rasherAlways prepare for the worst case
13:14:22tucozexactly.
13:14:42rasherSay, if someone forked Rockbox, took "our" manual, improved it vastly but slapped a front-cover text on it, we'd be completely unable to use any improvements
13:15:18rasherwell, not unable, but we'd have to include his front-cover text, which might not be a good idea
13:15:33tucozyes, that is not good
13:16:00linuxstbYes, that's the show-stopper for me.
13:16:22rasherOf course, it's very unlikely to happen, but it'd be nice to get it Right.
13:17:28linuxstbCould the GPL itself be used?
13:17:46 Quit nudelyn2 ("At Argon, we're working to keep your money.")
13:18:02rasherIt might.. I thought about that also at some point, I'm not sure why it isn't
13:18:08rashergenerally, that is
13:18:28rasherI wonder what the FSF's justification for a seperate documentation license is, might shed some light over it
13:18:45linuxstbGiven that we also have source (.tex) and binaries (.pdf), it would be nice if we could force any author of a modified manual to also release the .tex source.
13:19:26tucozyes, that would be the wanted feedback to get from a fork
13:19:55linuxstbBut creating .tex from .pdf isn't that difficult compared to dissassembling a program...
13:20:26amiconnUgh...
13:20:30rasherMostly, we'd be after the raw text anyway
13:20:41rasherBut I get the point
13:21:03*amiconn forgot to bump config version, or rather didn't forget it, but didn't notice that LinusN also did it
13:21:30tucozA question: I am changing the \pageref to \ref ('see 1.2', instead of 'see page 35' -for further...). It makes sence to have pageref in the pdf, but not in the html doc. What do you think?
13:22:03rasherMaybe create a macro that chooses one or the other depending on what's being built, pdf or html
13:22:13rasher(if that's possible, I don't know)
13:22:20tucozWe have talked about getting rid of pageref anyway. But, I only know \ref
13:22:38tucozAnd that works fine for me. Refer to a section instead of a page
13:23:06tucozBut, I am not sure if that will leave an 'academic' touch to the manual
13:23:09 Quit chendo (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
13:23:10rasherTo me, pageref makes more sense in a pdf or on print than a reference to a section, but obviuosly not in html
13:23:38rasher"see section 2.3" has the problem that people will have to look for that section
13:23:42pondlifeI assume this will allow the HTML manual to have links?
13:23:45*amiconn wonders whether bumping in quick succession is necessary
13:23:50 Join chendo [0] (n=chendo@203-206-65-33.dyn.iinet.net.au)
13:23:54rasherrather than just turning to a specific page
13:24:06tucozwell, a page can have several sections
13:24:14rasheramiconn: if it ends up in the same build, surely not
13:24:39tucozwhich leaves the user reading through an entire page instead of the targeted section
13:24:44LinusNamiconn: once a day would be enough
13:24:45amiconnIt doesn't... although it will end up in the same daily (of course)
13:25:09rashertucoz: "see page 139, Language" then :)
13:25:23amiconnLinusN: RED
13:25:29LinusNi know
13:25:41jsMikeSI'm curious...does RaeNye have commit access to cvs?
13:25:45LinusNyes he has
13:26:00jsMikeSLinusN: thanks
13:26:13rashertucoz: to me, using section numbers places a burdon on the reader to search for that section
13:26:31rasherwhich might or not be easy depending on the medium
13:26:35tucozwell, it's like reading a phonebook which all people can do
13:27:11rasherGiving a page, and section-name seems more friendly to me
13:27:35rasherdon't know if that's possible though
13:27:37tucozbut means more work when writing the manual
13:27:45tucozit is possible
13:28:04linuxstbLinusN: Minor point - if you're splitting up source files, the (C) name in the header in the original large file may not be appropriate for all the new smaller files. - e.g. I don't think amiconn was responsible for the ARM memset, but his name is at the top of memset_arm.S because he wrote the Coldfire version... But I'm not worried about it.
13:28:26tucozjust write a macro for references, and insert the apropriate if html or pdf is defined
13:28:32LinusNlinuxstb: aha
13:28:46amiconnlinuxstb: I wrote the coldfire and sh versions
13:29:00LinusNwho wrote the arm version?
13:29:01rashertucoz: I think it's better the writers put more effort into it to get a nice result. Effort once, easy for many rather than Easy once, effort for many
13:29:17linuxstbLinusN: preglow did, based on a version from the Linux kernel I think.
13:30:08jsMikeSLinusN: How come he's not showing up (at least not under RaeNye)? For some reason I don't think he really likes me much but I have always been nice but perhaps too talkative. Oh well, I dunno.

13:42:27LinusN^_jsMikeS_^: should be possible
13:43:18^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: And also if anyone knows any more port/pin assigments. Could be relevant to fixing a glitch that when the LCD is off at shutdown (gracefully), the backlight flickers once. The backlight has already been turned off btw.
13:44:06^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Is there an address line or GPO connected to the LCD's R/W pin?
13:44:13LinusNyes
13:44:47LinusNthe RW pin from the cpu
13:45:18^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I had a feeling. But I get back garbage reading the device id.

13:46:28^_jsMikeS_^BTW: A1 => RS, and A15=> ??
13:47:29LinusNa14 and a15 are used to select lcd or usbotg
13:47:47linuxstbHas anyone tried Rolo on the ipods with anything apart from the currently running rockbox.ipod? I can't get it to successfully run anything apart from the same rockbox.ipod, which makes me think it's badly wrong...
13:48:16 Quit safetydan ("Ex-Chat")
13:48:29LinusNlinuxstb: the rolo code itself must run in iram
13:48:40linuxstbYes, it's in iram.
13:48:47^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: That statement in the port/pin confuses me. I thought the chip select was CS1 (not A15) for the LCD.
13:49:07linuxstb(the rolo_restart function is)
13:49:10LinusNyes, it is cs1, but cs1 is shared between usbotg and lcd
13:49:47LinusNso cs1 goes via an extra address decoder
13:50:24^_jsMikeS_^LinunN: So how does it select so there won't be contention. You know what...ahhh...so that actually is connected to the CS on the LCD?
13:50:54*linuxstb checks rockbox.map and confirms rolo_restart is in iram.
13:51:20LinusNcs1 goes to two AND gates
13:51:48LinusNand it is ANDed with a14 and on to the lcd CS
13:52:21LinusNand a15 for the usbotg
13:52:42^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Now everything makes A LOT more sense. Thank you.
13:52:48LinusNyou're welcome
13:55:11^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I also had some quesions about the driver (I rewrote). Should lcd_blit, lcd_set_invert_display, lcd_set_clip be implemented?
13:55:19^_jsMikeS_^I mean: lcd_set_flip
13:57:16LinusNi guess so
13:57:42^_jsMikeS_^lcd_set_flip rotates 180deg?
13:58:05LinusNyes
13:58:52LinusNi believe lcd_blit() is only used by the chip8 emulator and the archos video playback
13:58:59^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I've read lcd_blit is supposed to use native format but color or color AND orientation (because of X5 90deg twist).
13:59:32^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I wanted to do lcd_blit as a precursor to video. Get it out there use it later.
13:59:35*linuxstb found the rolo problem - the cache...
13:59:43LinusNlinuxstb: ah
14:00
14:00:24linuxstbBut I don't know how to flush and disable it. All I know is if I don't enable it in the first place (creating an extremely sluggish Rockbox), rolo seems to work.

14:02:11^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Should lcd_blit use native orientation too or just color?
14:02:20rasherat least, some would think so (especially users with units that do video in OF)
14:02:28linuxstbrasher: Yes, that's the main aim. At the moment, the OF appears to crash immediately if I try to rolo it (with a modified rolo of course)
14:03:02^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Neither am I but I don't have any diagram in my head or otherwise about why.
14:03:39LinusN^_jsMikeS_^: i'm not sure about the lcd_blit, maybe you should consult the chip8 source code
14:04:47LinusN^_jsMikeS_^: you turn off the backlight by setting the gpo pin high, and when you turn off the pcf50606, it probably goes low for a moment, it seems to lack a pullup

14:06:23LinusNthe lcd_blit function is for monochrome bitmaps
14:07:25^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Ok so why does shutting the LCD off hot stop the flash? The OF gets streaks too.

14:08:19^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: lcd_blit can't be repurposed for video on other ports? Why use the screen buffer for video?
14:09:31LinusN^_jsMikeS_^: the lcd_blit function is used on the archos player for transferring data directly from the video stream to the lcd without passing the frame buffer
14:09:57LinusNi'm not sure how we want to use it on other targets
14:10:11LinusNi think you can leave that function for now
14:10:14^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: What about a function for being able to use full color depth to have the pseudo 262,144 colors for x5 or whatever any hw supports for image viewing or something.
14:10:50^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Ok...np.
14:13:16^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I'm very sure lcd_roll can't be implemented. What do you think? HWM cannot be used either. :(
14:13:58*^_jsMikeS_^ promises he will be done with this soon.
14:14:44LinusNhwm is probably out of the question, and i think lcd_roll too
14:15:16^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Affirmative. What a bummer design IMHO.
14:16:01LinusNthere is always something on every target
14:16:44^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Is it better to shut down the LCD gracefull and accept the little flash or leave it running till the end?
14:17:28LinusNi'm not sure if we need to shut it down gracefully
14:19:03^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: ok...I hear about those dreaded streaks shortening its life or something. Not true?
14:19:28LinusNi honestly don't know
14:20:00^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Just a couple more...What about shutting it down for power management?
14:20:28LinusNyou mean shut down the lcd when the backlight is off?
14:22:34^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Yes, I can shut down the visible display each time the backlight goes off and but leave the internals on (faster display reappearance) and maybe shut down internal display operation after a timeout.
14:23:24^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: I've had my copy patched with the first thing for awhile and it seems to help it a bit.
14:23:28LinusNsounds reasonable
14:24:07^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Never implemented a timeout though.
14:24:42LinusNi don't think it's necessary to shut it off completely, not if the startup time is annoying

14:26:30^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Startup time is ~180ms from dead off. I also implemented a lcd_power_mode to set its state to ON/OFF/STANDBY/SLEEP whenever you want but it becomes a new driver function. What do you think of adding new driver functions?
14:27:28LinusNwell, if the power saving is worth it, you can do anything you like
14:29:09^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: It might be here. Also improved from rates about 7%-8%. Should I break a driver update like that into several patches or just put it in one lump? Involves a about four or five files.
14:29:24^_jsMikeS_^I mean "frame rates"! :)
14:30:51LinusNit depends. i think you should perhaps split the performance enhancements and the power saving
14:30:56^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: What does "worth it" mean. 5%, 10%, 50%?? Curious.
14:31:39LinusN"worth it" means if it is measurable
14:32:22^_jsMikeS_^I got rid of that lookup table too. It didn't help anything. I just do an clever little (to me anyway :) AND and ADD and it didn't drop perf.
14:32:32^_jsMikeS_^LinusN: Ok...use battery bench?
14:33:21LinusNbattery bench is probably a good idea, or a multimeter

17:02:33humuluswell the display is white, so when the player is off and i press the reset button i can't see stuff happening
17:03:37LinusNit's partly that (and the stop behaviour), and the fact that the patch does so much more than the patch description
17:04:12LinusNhumulus: the display should go black when you reset it

21:44:33linuxstb_Something that could be interesting is to read and dump the GPIO ports to a file when you boot - and try booting in various different conditions, such as with the hold switch on and off, usb inserted and not inserted, other keys pressed or not pressed - to see if you can start identifying what's connected to the GPIO. That could give you a way to choose whether to boot the original firmware or Rockbox.

22:29:40freqmodmaybe it does not work with your version (mine is cvs from today)
22:32:03tictricah, but it doesn't work when it's off and i plug it in. Then it keeps rebooting.
22:32:16linuxstb_No. You need to be running Rockbox first.
22:32:53freqmodyes it does, rockbox won't work if the cable is connected upon startup
22:34:00*freqmod would like to see ipodloader2 going to some kind of charging mode when the power is connected upon startup
22:34:17bluebrothernls, you're in?
22:35:37tictricbtw, ipod shouldn't reset when disconnecting from the computer and _hold_ is still on. I think it should check wheter _hold_ is already on when rebooting or not
22:36:17linuxstb_tictric: Suggest it to Apple - when the ipod is in disk mode, it's running Apple's firmware.

22:43:51tictricno I've never used apple firmware, yet. I bought that thing and first thing I did was installing rockbox. Not a single song in itunes thingy
22:44:37bluebrotherah, ok. Then I misunderstood it slightly.
22:45:25tictricI think rockbox should check whether hold is already _on_ or is _being switched on_ while booting
22:46:31nlsbluebrother, here
22:46:47bluebrotherlinuxstb_, can I close this one? As I understood Rolo is now implemented on ipods. http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5621
22:46:58linuxstb_How would it check that? When Rockbox starts, hold is either on or it isn't... But I think everyone wants to find a better way to reset settings, instead of using hold.
22:47:16linuxstb_bluebrother: Rolo is implemented, but buggy. I'm still trying to get it working properly.
22:47:57bluebrothernls, I just looked over your last changes −− you know we have manufacturer specific opts now?
22:48:49nlsyes, what were you thinking about?
22:49:18bluebrotheronly the opt for the upside down settings −− as I recognized it this applies to all ipods for now.
22:49:40bluebrothernot as it is important but I thought maybe you just didn't knew of that.
22:50:58nlswait, i nopted that... so it's wrong? *goes checking*
22:51:18bluebrotherbtw, we should replace all pageref's with references to section numbers. Page numbers look really strange on the html manual ;-)
22:51:32bluebrothernls, there is nothing wrong, it just may have been shorter.
22:52:13nlsyea saw that "see blah on page 305"
22:53:25bluebrotherI think it's funny htlatex generates page numbers that are way bigger than the actual page count of the pdf manual ;-)
22:53:52nlsindeed :-)
22:54:27tictricanother user question: I can copy and paste playlists but I can't move them like other files or do you guys think it preferable if all playlists are in root?
22:54:47nlsbut back to the upside down thingy it is actually available on all bitmap targets except _color_ ipods...
22:55:00bluebrothertictric, use cut & paste.
22:55:07low_lightI just fixed this bug http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5685 if someone wants to close it.
22:55:15bluebrothernls, oh, wasn't aware of that.

23:19:49Bagderyes
23:20:05BagderI guess I'll just let it discharge
23:20:13Bagderit has not reset anywhere
23:20:14Bagderno
23:20:43linuxstb_Nasty... No hard-wired button combination like the ipods then?
23:20:53Bagdernot that I know of at least
23:20:54dionoeaRaiderX: what if you keep menu pressed from the start ?
23:20:59dionoeanever let it go
23:21:32RaiderXtreid that
23:21:40RaiderXstill loads rockbox
23:21:43dionoeashut the ipod
23:21:52dionoeaand reall ykeep menu pressed
23:21:53RaiderXshut it?
23:21:57RaiderXoh yea
23:22:02RaiderXi tried that :X
23:22:41linuxstb_Try holding PLAY instead of MENU - some people find that works more reliably. (it will attempt to load IPL, but then when it doesn't find it, default to the Apple firmware)
23:23:11RaiderXi actually tried pplay because i thoguht mayeb i had the wrong button and that doesnt work either
23:23:29dionoeayou're pressing it before the apple logo shows up right ?
23:23:32RaiderXooh it worked

23:23:55RaiderXok, thanks
23:24:04linuxstb_PLAY worked, or MENU?
23:24:07RaiderXplay
23:24:28RaiderXim gonan try menu now to see, it might be because i just put it into disk mode
23:24:37RaiderXand that somehow made ti work :/
23:24:50merbananBagder: and holding the menu button for 15 seconds didn't work ?
23:24:51 Quit TucknDar (Client Quit)
23:25:13Bagderaha!
23:25:16Bagderthat worked
23:25:18Bagderthanks
23:25:22RaiderXnope, the play button just works and menu doesnt
23:25:27linuxstb_So it does have a hardware reset?
23:25:34RaiderXo well, at least i can switch if i need to
23:26:01Bagderit could very well be a hw reset

23:26:32linuxstb_It would be odd if there was no way to recover from a software crash.
23:26:41Bagdertrue
23:26:48dionoeawait for the battery to emtpy
23:26:53dionoeathat'll always work :)
23:28:17linuxstb_So what does "manufacturer mode" do?
23:28:40BagderI don't know, its a magic upgrade mode
23:28:47 Join midkay [0] (n=midkay@rockbox/developer/midkay)
23:28:53Bagder"As of now we can not give out manufacturing mode to anyone outside sandisk or sandisk vendors,"
23:29:08linuxstb_Let's become a sandisk vendor...
23:29:21barrywardellBagder: it's true that 'skinning' the H10 is generating all the hype, but it also seems to be generating some interest for people who want to help get rockbox working on the h10 too
23:29:32Bagderyes
23:29:36Bagderthat's the upside of it

23:29:58goffathat would rule if you were sandisk vendors.. of course they'd probably want to close your code :)
23:30:23Bagderthere are very few people seemingly interested in helping out the sansa effort
23:30:33linuxstb_Not even sandisk...
23:30:39Bagderyeah, including them
23:31:02merbananBagder: isn't there some self tests you can do in the bootloader ?
23:31:03linuxstb_So it's just you at the moment? :)
23:31:18Bagderlinuxstb: yes, as far as I know
23:31:35Bagdermerbanan: perhaps, I don't know
23:31:59dionoeathat's weird ... if they're the one to ask for a port why don't they help you a bit ? (at least with specs)
23:32:02merbananBagder: I remember seeing references to memtests and codec tests when I looked at the firmware
23:32:33Bagderdionoea: because the one who asked us doesn't have the info nor clues to understand those things
23:33:02merbanandionoea: might be the marketing division acting without knowing the agreements they have with other companies
23:33:03dionoeathen why are you doing it ? it kind of look they asked you to work for free...
23:33:11dionoea*looks
23:33:16Bagderfor the challange
23:33:25Bagderand I did get a player to play with
23:33:34Bagderso I'm trying hard to brick it ;-P
23:33:45linuxstb_Good excuse to give up the port :)
23:33:45*dionoea tells every hardware manufacturer to send a player to badger and fire all they software people
23:33:50merbananwasn't it 2 ? or did you brick one already
23:33:58Bagderno, Linus has the other one
23:33:58 Part stripwax
23:33:59dionoeatheir
23:34:09Bagderalthough I'm not sure he even has started it yet ;-)
23:34:40BagderI wonder if Linus is the current leader in shear amount of players
23:34:53linuxstb_I think he said he had 14 the other day.
23:34:53dionoeahow many does he own ?
23:34:59dionoeawow ... impressive :)
23:35:05Bagderhe counted 15 before the sansa iirc
23:35:17dionoeaall run rockbox ?
23:35:21Bagdernot the sansa
23:35:26Bagderbut the others do
